[NSRCA-discussion] Fuel Line Pressure

[Bob Kane]

The DZ series of YS engines (140, 160, 170) do not pressurize the tank . . . . . . .

YS 4 strokes pressurize the tank to about 9psi. 
I measured the tank pressure with a T and a meter.
So, I guess this means that the fuel feed line is 9psi as well.

Never tried this but I read about it and meant to try. Just tee the line going to the carb and run a piece of fuel line up a stick, wall or what ever with the top of the line left open, start engine and see how far up the line it goes. This won’t give a specific PSI measurement but it sounds like a good way to get a reference to analyze or adjust with.

Does anyone know what the nominal fuel line pressures are in .45 – 1.60 size engines is? Is there a known source for a measuring gauge?
